I have a weird one! The smell of one of the hand sanitizer brands ("Germ X") always brings me back to Kindergarten when we'd all line up for some hand sanitizer before lunch and after recess, then right before going home for the day. Times were so much simpler back then.
I don't have a lot of "visual" memories left of those times, but the smell of that specific hand sanitizer brand seems like a memory that will never fade for me.
Apparently though memory is primarily visual, odor is one of our strongest memory makers
